More about Antivirus…

In the theory of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, there are five main facets: psychological, safety, love/belonging, esteem, and self-actualization. Safety Needs regards security and stability. It is considered one of our basic needs as a human. Even though preserving possessions isn’t as vital as something like job security, we have all experienced a freak-out moment when we forgot to save an important document in Word or think we have a virus on your computer.

Overall, protecting material possessions is important. Whether it’s your home or your electronic devices, there are different steps to help protect your important possessions. Typically, people have a security alarm for their homes. It is just as important to have an alarm system on your computer. Antivirus functions as a defense mechanism for your computer files, hard drive, and personal information.

Antivirus helps detect and protect your computer against viruses, worms, trojan horses, and unwanted visitors. These codes delete important files, corrupt hard and flash drives, access your personal data, and even use your computer as a segue to destroying other computers.
